⛽ What Is Our Fuel Injection System Cleaning Service?

Your engine runs on precision—and the fuel injection system plays a major role. But over time, injectors can become restricted by carbon buildup, varnish, and fuel residue. This leads to poor spray patterns, misfires, rough idling, and reduced performance.

At CarbonTech, we use the FlexFuel Carbon X3 chemical-based system to clean the entire fuel injection circuit—from the pump to the injectors—without removing a single part. Whether petrol or diesel, our cleaning process restores spray efficiency, fuel atomisation, and smooth engine operation.

🧠 Why Fuel Injector Cleaning Is So Important

Even high-quality fuel leaves behind carbon and microscopic deposits. Over time, these cause:

• Restricted injector nozzles

• Poor spray patterns

• Inconsistent fuel delivery

• Delayed ignition or incomplete combustion

• Higher fuel consumption

• Black smoke, knock, and engine vibration

In diesel engines, clogged injectors also increase soot output—overloading your DPF faster. In petrol engines, it causes lean misfires and hesitation under load.

In many cases, this contamination leads to mechanical failure of the injector—such as stuck nozzles or damaged internals. Once this happens, cleaning will not fix it.
The only solution is replacement, and modern diesel injectors can cost anywhere from $500 to $1,500 each—not including labour.

Regular cleaning can prevent this.

🔧 How We Clean It with FlexFuel Carbon X3

Our Fuel Injection System Cleaning is done via the vehicle’s fuel rail or dedicated fuel port, depending on the setup.

Using the FlexFuel Carbon X3 machine, we disconnect the vehicle’s fuel supply and run the engine exclusively on our specialised cleaning chemical.

• The chemical dissolves varnish, gum, and carbon inside the injectors, rail, and high-pressure pump

• Cleaning is done while the engine is running, ensuring real-time burning of deposits

• No parts are removed

• No tank additives—this is a professional direct injection method

🕒 The entire process takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes.

✅ What Are the Benefits?

• Restored injector spray pattern

• Smoother idle and better cold starts

• Reduced fuel consumption

• Improved throttle response and torque

• Lower emissions and smoke

• Helps extend the life of the DPF, EGR, and turbo in diesel vehicles

💡 Ideal for Preventive Maintenance

If your vehicle has:

• Over 80,000 km

• Runs diesel or direct injection petrol

• Feels sluggish or knocks under load

• Uses more fuel than it used to

• Produces excessive smoke

…it’s a good time to have the fuel injection system cleaned professionally.

Many injector-related issues can be fixed early with cleaning, saving you from expensive injector replacement later.
